Welcome to Witch Country

Welcome to Witch Country is the first episode in Season One of Witch Country. It is the first episode of the series overall.

Plot
The episode begins with an animated history lesson about Cain and Abel: long ago, after the Primordial Beings banished Adam and Eve from the Garden, they had sex and and gave birth to Cain and Abel. Abel was good and kind but Cain had a fiery rage inside of him due to being ignored. One day, he killed Abel. This angered God, who in turn struck him with a mark of shame. Ashamed of what he had done and now cursed with immortality, Cain now walks the Earth and is never allowed entrance into Heaven.

It also gives us some history on the Gods who lived in the Old World, a world unlike our own. When the Old World crumbled, the Gods came to our world but monsters came along with them. To combat them, an Order named in honor of the Greek Goddess Astraea was started.

In present day Los Angeles, Delilah walks down the street disguised as a hooker. She walks down an alleyway and is met by a pale young man with blonde hair. She gives him a seductive smile and offers him a "good time" but he says that she looks delicious and attempts to bite her, revealing himself to be a Strigoi. She pushes him against the wall with inhuman strength and he gets cocky, asking if she's a Werewolf. But she says no and that she is actually a Cambion.

He pushes her against the wall so hard that it cracks. He also savagely kicks her in the stomach. She responds by stabbing his leg with her blade but it does nothing but annoy him. He picks her up and bites into her throat. Instead of screaming, she remains silent and the blood begins dissolving his jaw. He drops her and his whole form begins to glow before completely exploding.

She limps home and, once inside, plops onto her bed and falls asleep. When she wakes up the next morning, she finds that her wounds have all healed except for the scar on her neck. But she covers it up and goes to shower. After showering, she is about to put toast in when she gets a text from her Amazon friend Amaya.

Amaya offers to buy her a coffee and Delilah accepts, leaving the apartment. She gets to the diner Amaya is at and the two begin chatting happily before Amaya sees her scar. She scolds her a little, saying that she needs to stop going out on hunts alone. Delilah doesn't see the problem in it as she can regenerate but Amaya says that they need to stay together and that monster attacks have been becoming more frequent. She also tells her that the Order has supposedly spotted Cain in the city and tells her to keep a lookout for him.

Delilah gets up and tells her that it'll all be fine. Amaya asks her if she'll be attending the meeting but Delilah isn't sure. She leaves and heads for a rabbit shop owned by Ostara, the Germanic Goddess of Spring. Ostara is tending to some rabbits when Delilah startles her in a humorous way. Ostara tells her not to do that but Delilah ignores her.

The two have a talk, with Ostara lamenting how nobody will worship her on Easter. Delilah assures her that the Order will worship her and promises to take her out on a Sunday brunch. This cheers Ostara up a little bit and a dead flower on her work desk suddenly springs to life. She gets out a cigarette but can't find her lighter and Delilah lights it up for her with some fire from her pinkie.

Delilah returns to her house and stands in front of a mirror where she brings out her wings. They look reptilian and she begins to flap them clumsily, only being able to lift herself a foot off the ground. She lands back down with a thud and begins to weep for a bit. After composing herself, she gets up and immediately gets a telepathic message from Lena Drewstone, a Sex Witch and good friend of hers.

The telepathic message details a party going on later tonight and she invites her to come. Delilah accepts it and the message ends. Later on that night, Delilah arrives at the club dressed in a purple dress. She walks inside and Lena runs up to her, engulfing her in a big hug. She takes her over to the bar and orders her a drink.

She asks her how she is and Delilah states that she's "living life to the fullest." Lena says that that's good and the two share a drink. A song comes on and Lena invites Delilah to dance. Delilah joins and the two dance to the song for what seems like hours. As that goes on, a woman approaches Lena and asks her to dance. Lena accepts and the two begin dancing sensually.

Delilah watches this and at first thinks it's all in good fun but immediately stops when she sees the woman's eyes turn black, signalling it's a Strigoi. She utilizes her telekinesis and blasts the Strigoi woman outside. The two race out and begin to fight the Strigoi woman with it overpowering Lena and knocking her to the ground.

The Strigoi races toward Delilah and attempts to attack but Delilah intimidates it by bringing out her wings. Her eyes go black and she puts up her hand, lifting the Strigoi woman off the ground. She's prepared to tear it apart but not before an Angel swoops down and slices it in half with a Holy Sword.

The Angel lands and reveals himself to be Yael, a Cherubim. He tells Delilah that he isn't going to hurt them and helps Lena up. Lena runs back into the bar. Delilah talks with Yael and he tells her that, while the Angels do appreciate the work the Order does, they should just leave Cain to them as "he's biblical and a biblical problem requires a biblical response."

He has Delilah promise to stay out of it and she does though she secretly crosses her fingers.

In the deep recesses of the city, Cain walks through a large building housing millions of artifacts from different eras. He picks up one, a stone pot with a lid welded onto it, and a Strigoi comes to him, stating that "the Angels have appeared finally." Cain says that it's good and he opens the pot, allowing flies to swarm from it.
